Sir John Cope KB MP (July 1688 – 28 July 1760) was a British soldier, and Whig Member of Parliament, representing three separate constituencies between 1722 and 1741. He is now chiefly remembered for his defeat at Prestonpans, the first significant battle of the Jacobite rising of 1745 and which was commemorated by the tune "Hey, Johnnie Cope, Are Ye Waking Yet?", which still features in modern Scottish folk music and bagpipe recitals.

  • Sir John Cope KB MP (July 1688 – 28 July 1760) was a British soldier, and Whig Member of Parliament, representing three separate constituencies between 1722 and 1741. He is now chiefly remembered for his defeat at Prestonpans, the first significant battle of the Jacobite rising of 1745 and which was commemorated by the tune "Hey, Johnnie Cope, Are Ye Waking Yet?", which still features in modern Scottish folk music and bagpipe recitals. His military service included the wars of the Spanish and Austrian Successions. Like many of the senior officers present at Dettingen in 1743, victory resulted in promotion, and he was appointed military commander in Scotland shortly before the 1745 Rising. Although exonerated by a court-martial in 1746, Prestonpans ended his career as a field officer. In 1751, he was appointed governor of the Limerick garrison, and deputy to Viscount Molesworth, commander of the army in Ireland. He died in London on 28 July 1760. (en)

  • Sir John (ou Jonathan) Cope (1688-1760) est un général britannique et membre du Parlement dans la première moitié du XVIIIe siècle. Il sert lors de la guerre de Succession d'Autriche, la guerre de Succession d'Espagne et la guerre de Succession d'Autriche et est député du parti whig, représentant Queenborough (1722-1727), Liskeard (1727-1734) et Orford (1738-1741). Il combat lors de la victoire britannique de Dettingen en juin 1743 pendant la guerre de succession d'Autriche et est ensuite fait chevalier compagnon du Bain et commandant militaire en Écosse. En septembre 1745, il est battu à Prestonpans, la première bataille importante du soulèvement jacobite de 1745. Bien qu'exonéré de responsabilité par une cour martiale en 1746, cela met fin à sa carrière d'officier de terrain. En 1751, il est nommé gouverneur de la garnison de Limerick et adjoint du vicomte Molesworth, commandant de l'armée d'Irlande. Il est décédé à Londres le 28 juillet 1760. (fr)
